Synopsis
Never Cry Wolf is a book by Canadian author Farley Mowat, first published in 1963 by McClelland and Stewart. It was adapted into a moderately successful movie of the same name in 1983. It has been credited for dramatically changing the public image of the animal to a more positive one. It is presented as a first-person narrative of Mowat's research into the nature of the Arctic Wolf; however, there is some debate over how much of the book is indeed factual.
Reviews
On Aug 28 2016, a reader said:
Gripping narrative of a professional biologist sent to the arctic by Canada's wildlife Service to study wolves
which I later heard was made into a movie. The twist at the end is unforgettable.
